On this tour we will explore how our idea of nature has been a cultural construction, full of imaginaries and hierarchies. We will seek to disorder the “mother-nature” relationship and we will trace the very privileged place we have occupied in the food chain (who feeds whom? , who is studying whom?). Practicing listening, attention and observation as tools, we will open conversations with worlds other than the human and together we will offer a poem to the plants that accompany us.
Cross-cutting tours are visits to Open Art exhibitions with guests from diverse areas other than art, to expand themes and points of reference from other perspectives, perspectives, languages and disciplines.
